10 violent video games

The National Rifle Association, which is meeting Thursday with Vice President Joe Biden to discuss gun policy in America, is one of a number of voices blaming mass shooting on a culture that includes horrendously violent and bloody video games. On Wednesday, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who has four kids, revealed that he has banned “Call of Duty” from his house. But “Call of Duty” isn’t the only video game to come under attack in the wake of the Sandy Hook shootings. Here’s a look at some of the games that have raised concerns:

“Grand Theft Auto,” multiple versions, multiple producers — Grand Theft Auto, like Mortal Kombat, was cited by NRA head Wayne LaPierre in his address following the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. And like Mortal Kombat, “GTA” now comes in multiple versions, many of which have been criticized as excessively violent. “As in previous installments, here you play as a thug with problems you must steal and shoot your way out of,” one Amazon product description summarized. Rated: “Mature.”
